Kai looked apologetically at Mr. Martin before he shot a glare at Lei. How many times had he been interrupted by Lei already? Couldn't Lei tell that he was having an important discussion? If Lei wanted to cause trouble, he should leave him out of it. Seeing as Kai wasn't interested, Lei gave a shrug before he strode out of the booth.

"Where is he going?" Mr. Martin asked, wondering if they were planning to create trouble for Jennie Facci-Kim. Mr Martin thought that if they were dumb enough to offend Jennie Facci-Kim, then it would be best to stay away with Kai and his group of partners.

"He is taking care of a little problem," Yuan explained, giving Kai an apologetic smile before following after Lei. He couldn't miss a good show.

"I think we should follow them," Mr. Martin said. He had already lost interest in this deal anyway. As a businessman, Mr. Martin had to think in the long term. It would be in his best interest to curry favors with Jennie instead. The woman was already a legend in Europe, a pioneer in the energy and construction industry. Imagine if she decides to invade the film industry in the future? With a multi awarded director and renowned fashion designer by her side, Jennie would definitely be successful.

With all these in mind, Mr. Martin also rose from his seat and followed the men outside. Kai didn't think that Mr. Martin would be this nosy and he was irritated. It was all because of Ruby Jane! Mr. Martin's indifference to their discussion didn't escape Kai's notice as well. Kai blamed it all on Ruby Jane and he grew angrier by the minute.

Kai didn't continue to stay in the booth and followed after Mr. Martin. He only had one thought in mind: Kick Ruby Jane out of this club.

Meanwhile, Jennie was enjoying her dance with Chaeng and Jisoo. Even Irene and her directors joined in the fun. Jennie was determined to enjoy herself tonight as gatherings like this doesn't come by often.

While some people might think a person would lose their freedom after getting married, Jennie believes that her marriage with Lisa would not be like that. With marriage, a couple would need to make changes and adjustments for each other and Jennie was willing to do that. Like the fact that she would be making Korea her base of operations because Korea would be her new home after marriage. This also meant that she might not see Chaeng and Jisoo as often.

"I really don't think someone of your kind, belongs to this place." Jennie turned around instantly, curious to know who had seemingly directed those provocative words at her. Jennie eyed the man who was staring at her with animosity. Although he was a little good-looking, he was lanky and pale. He didn't do his expensive looking tuxedo justice.

Seeing as Jennie was not responding to him, the man raised his voice this time, "I said... you do not belong in this place!" That immediately got the attention of everyone, including the people in Jennie's company who all turned their heads toward him.

"I'm sorry... are you talking to me?" Jennie asked, her brows furrowed. Though she had found the man a little familiar, she just couldn't figure out this man's identity. Over the years, Jennie had met and interacted with many people for business, and she couldn't possibly remember every single one of them. Moreover, even if this man wasn't someone she met while doing business, but was someone from her past, it was even less likely for her to have any recollections because she was living like a hermit when she was still living with the Kim family.

"Of course! Do you see anyone here as dirty as you?" Lei said with a smug on his face.

"Other than you?" Jennie raised an eyebrow before turning her head from left to right. She then shook her head. "None"

"You- Stop pretending that you don't know me!" Lei said. "This is not a place that you can just come into. Leave now or I will have security drag you and your company out."
